How to change the active account?

[fliesch]

I am currently demotrading with NT. I managed to create a second simulated account.

But how to choose which account is active for trading? One is for realtime trading the other should be for market replay trading.

Hello,

Thank you for your note.

In the SuperDOM window, you will see an Account field with a drop down list that you can toggle back and forth from your Sim acct to Live acct. Also, ensure 'Global Simulation Mode' from the Filemenu in Control Centeris unchecked when you want togo 'live'.

If you using our simulation edition, only one simulation account is available. Byron is correct for when you are trading live.

ok. Two questions:

1. What if I would like to use several simulated accounts without real live trading? As much as I see this is not possible with NT? If it is which version? Price?

Reason: I would like to forward test several automated trading systems.



2. In market replay mode it just plots the data of the actual day. I need longerterm charts for trading. IS IT POSSIBLE TO PLOT HISTORICAL DATA UP TO THE CURRENT REPLAYED BAR?

Thanks

1. You need the NinjaTrader Standard Edition to run mutliple simulation accounts.

2. It is not possible to load historical data in market replay at this time.

AD 2: Would be an important feature request for many users I think.
